My Privilege Annual Season Ticket has stopped working the gates.
I tried to get it reissued at London Bridge LUL, only to be told they no longer stock paper season tickets. On contatcing Oyster, I discover they do not issue Privilege Season Tickets on Oyster and that LUL should still stock paper tickets for the various Season Tickets not covered by Oyster. London Bridge LUL Ticket staff still insist they can not issue Season Tickets on paper tickets any more!!!! Anyone any ideas?? |

Why not try a station that is served by Underground and National Rail and the ticket office is managed by a TOC? They still sell season tickets on Oyster and paper. |

TOCs AFAIK can't/don't replace or reissue Season Tickets bought through LUL as they don't have access to the Season ticket record database. The same would apply vive-versa. -- Phil Richards London, UK Home Page: http://www.philrichards1.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk |

Has anyone any idea why this is the case? London Bridge LUL Ticket staff still insist they can not issue Season Tickets on paper tickets any more!!!! Presumably they have run out of paper stock rather than the system not being able to handle priv rate season tickets any longer. Guess it might be worth reminding them that help is available at the end of the phone with all these sort of matters. Failing that, I would advise just go to another LUL station and see what they have say, they all have access to the same Season Ticket database. -- Phil Richards London, UK Home Page: http://www.philrichards1.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk |

As my Priv Season is only valid Zone 1 Tube/DLR, it can't be issued at a National Station. Thanks for info Phil regarding database. I wasn't aware of this, I thought I could only get it reissued by the Ticket office that issued it. The ticket staff at London Bridge LUL are not all that good. I have had problems with them before.

You should then be able to get that done through a NR station. The ticket staff at London Bridge LUL are not all that good. I have had problems with them before. I tend to have problems with LUL priv season re-issues. The last one was getting a Zone 1 & 2 extended to cover Zone 3 when I moved. You wouldn't believe the hassle I had to go through.... -- Phil Richards London, UK Home Page: http://www.philrichards1.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk |

Well London Bridge LUL have finally found Season Ticket Blanks, however, I've yet to find a member of ticket staff who can reissue my ticket so that the gates can read it. Keeps coming up Code 11...Out of Date, although the ticket clearly shows on it, that it is in date!!! On 3rd reissue, will get it reissued again tomorrow!!!!!!!! |
